Maggie's Notebook  "We’ve seen some very powerful NRA television ads recently. This one speaks to the hundreds of thousands who lose their rights because of their address, the elderly with gang-bangers walking up and down their halls. This woman says she marched behind Martin Luther King, Jr., and she knows her rights.". . .

GOP Lawmaker Wants Clinton Impeached on Day One "Said Brooks: “In my judgment, with respect to Hillary Clinton, she will be a unique president if she is elected by the public next November, because the day she’s sworn in is the day that she’s subject to impeachment because she has committed high crimes and misdemeanors.' ”

. . . The boy hugged the dictator just six days before Obama greeted the boy at the White House.   . . .
"Since then, the boy and his supporters have declared Americans to be “racist” and intolerant of individual Muslims because of routine American opposition to Islam’s theocratic, violent, supremacist and intolerant ideas.

Patriot Post The kid has picked up on the "white privilege" routine.
. . . ""Indeed, Ahmed said, “I’m pretty sure if I was a Caucasian male I wouldn’t have got arrested. … Pretty sure I would’ve been awarded the smartest kid in class if I was a Caucasian male.”

"Ahmed’s father is politically active and ran for office in Sudan a number of times, and the photo-op with Bashir was Ahmed’s 15 minutes of fame. The optics of an Obama-Ahmed visit didn’t look as good for Obama, though he did personally greet the boy Monday night. "

Arthur Miller-Communist

On the centenary of his birth, he remains the playwright who made anti-communism a hate crime.


. . . "It’s not that liberals have been pro-communist so much as they are antianti-communist. They dislike anti-communists more than they dislike communists. Their preferred demon isn’t Joe Stalin but Joe McCarthy. As James Burnham, the great ex-communist, put it, “for the left, the preferred enemy is always to the right.”

"But this does not suffice to describe Arthur Miller. Miller was not only anti-anti-communist; he was pro-communist. More than that, Arthur Miller had been a communist. And that’s something that students in their public schools and in our woeful universities had not and still will not learn as they are spoon-fed Miller’s left-wing morality plays. To the contrary, Miller’s most-lasting works have succeeded in portraying anti-communists as the lowest form of political troglodyte. Chief among those works, the playwright became a hero among the left for The Crucible, his political parable of the alleged excesses of anti-communism, which portrayed accused communists as innocent fighters for truth, justice, and the American way." . .

"B---- Sh-- on the pages of the New York Times"

Honest Reporting

"Nathan Thrall’s recent New York Times column is an error-filled diatribe that has no place on the pages of any legitimate newspaper. Worse than simply misleading readers, his bottom line is frightening. He claims that efforts to restore calm and prevent violence are actually not constructive:
But what does seem guaranteed is that most Palestinians will continue to believe that if the occupation is cost-free, there will be little incentive to end it.
"In other words, the path to peace lies in making the conflict more “costly” to Israelis rather than negotiating for peace. It is clear from the column (in which he cites the “success” of the previous Intifadas) that what Thrall means by “cost” is deadly violence against Israelis.

"But let’s first count the lies which he uses to come to his poisonous conclusion." . . .
